Luxury For Less in Latin America

July 8, 2014

If you are thinking about going to Central or South America within the next year, now is the time to start thinking about it and we bring you five insider travel tips as well as some inspiring holiday ideas on how to be smart with your money when planning a Latin America holiday

Book your flights as early as possible – 11 months in advance if you can. This will secure the cheapest seats on any flight allowing you spend your hard earned cash on the best hotels and rooms. Also, Central America is cheaper to fly to than South America.

Try to avoid too much moving around as transfers to and from airports or towns can push your price up quickly. We recommend staying in two or three places within each country and exploring the surrounding areas from there.

Sometimes it is worth doing a few shared activities. A prime example of this is around the Glaciers in El Calafate where a private tour of the glacier can sometimes be twice as much as a shared one.

Manage where you stay. If you are on a budget stay in ‘good value’ hotels in good locations, then you can spoil yourself with a nice hotel for a few days at the end.

Taking internal flights in places like Brazil, Argentina or Chile can be expensive as distances are vast, so try to keep to one or two. In Central America internal flights are cheaper and it’s a great way to see different parts of the country without losing time.

Need some inspiration on where to go and an idea of cost? Here are our ideas for the best places to go and stay if you want cocktails and canapés on a budget.

We have also given a guideline price for a 2 week holiday, though this price does not include any international flights, but does include internal flights, all hotels on a b&b basis, some activities and private transfers throughout.
